“…As these concentrations are higher than the average environmental ones, this result appeared quite comforting, but more awareness is necessary. In fact, concentrations of the same magnitude of EC 50 of S. roscoffensis have already been reported in both surface water and groundwater (25,000 and 30,000 ng/L BPA respectively) in the Santa Catarina River, Mexico (Cruz-López et al, 2020) and in sludge from sewage treatment works (16300 ng/L BPA) in UK (Petrie et al, 2019). Moreover, marine animals are exposed simultaneously to a variety of pollutants, which may affect photosymbiosis at different levels and can cause mixture additive effects (Altenburger et al, 2003) and thus even at low concentrations might be able to disrupt this algal-animal relationship.…”

Photosymbiosis indicates a long-term association between animals and photosynthetic organisms. It has been mainly investigated in photosymbiotic cnidarians, while other photosymbiotic associations have been largely neglected. The acoel Symsagittifera roscoffensis lives in obligatory symbiosis with the microalgal Tetraselmis convolutae and has recently emerged as alternative model to study photosymbiosis. Here, we investigated the effects of Bisphenol A, a common plastic additive, on two pivotal stages of its lifecycle: aposymbiotic juvenile development and photosymbiogenesis. Based on our results, this pollutant altered the development of the worms and their capacity to engulf algae from the environment at concentrations higher than the levels detected in seawater, yet aligning with those documented in sediments of populated areas. Data provide novel information about the effects of pollutants on photosymbiotic associations and prompt the necessity to monitor their concentrations in marine environmental matrices.

“…Previously conducted study by Cruz-lopez et al . showed DEHP concentration range between 1 and 220 µg/L in surface water and 180–220 µg/L in ground water 35 . A high concentration of DEHP in source water may indicate its stronger sorption capacity and lower degradation rate.…”

“…An earlier study has reported a much higher concentration of BPA i.e., 85.5 µg/L and 2.230 µg/L in surface and drinking water, respectively 44 . The Study conducted in Mexico, evaluated BPA concentration upto 30 µg/L (surface water) and 25 µg/L (ground water) 35 . In the summer season, the BPA concentrations in the water samples were generally high and it seemed to be well distributed in terms of occurrence which was consistent with the results reported by Ref.…”

Contamination of drinking water with endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) raises concerns over the security and long-term sustainability of clean water supplies as well as human exposure via daily water intake. In this study, the seasonal disparity and occurrence of six phthalates and bisphenol-A in the drinking water supply system and associated health-risk were examined. The detection frequencies of the ∑6PAEs ranged from 24 to 100% in the winter whereas; in summer it is below the detection limit up to 100%. DEHP was the most prevalent phthalate congener ranging from 1.14 to 8351.85 µg/L (winter) and 0.552 to 410.29 µg/L (summer) surpassing the permissible limit. However, BPA concentrations were found under the permissible limit. The results suggested that PAEs concentration displayed significant seasonal variations with the highest in winter and the lowest in summer. The exposure to PAEs and BPA from drinking water was assessed, indicating a possible health risk to humans with a hazard quotient (HQ) > 1 for DEHP only. The findings necessitate an immediate scrutiny of these EDCs in drinking water supply system and are critical for implementing effective technologies at the WTP scale to ensure the quality and safety of drinking water to ascertain human and environmental health.

“…Esta situación es comprensible pues es necesario disponer de datos de seguimiento de calidad. Actualmente, existe poca información sobre el uso y disposición de los desechos radiactivos que emplean las instituciones; además, regularmente se desconoce quién las adquiere, vende, usa y dónde las dispone y/o carece de equipo especializado para detectar las concentraciones de los emisores radiactivos (Cruz-López et al, 2020; Instituto Mexicano de Tecnología del Agua [IMTA], 2010). Salinas (2022) analizó y evaluó la existencia de riesgo para el público y el medio ambiente por efectos de los emisores radiactivos en agua de la Unión Europea.…”

Los isótopos radiactivos son utilizados en diversos procesos, como en tratamientos médicos nucleares. Después de su uso, dichos isótopos pueden ser descargados en las aguas residuales, ocasionando problemas ambientales y de salud humana. El objetivo de este trabajo fue identificar la presencia de emisiones alfa y beta totales en el río Santa Catarina, Monterrey, Nuevo León, México, como referencia para conocer si existe riesgo para la salud de la población debido a estas descargas de radionúclidos en el agua residual. Se recolectaron muestras puntuales por conveniencia en seis sitios de descarga de agua durante la época de invierno y verano y se trasladaron al Laboratorio ABC para su análisis. Las emisiones alfa y beta variaron conforme a la estación del año, encontrándose concentraciones más altas en verano tanto de alfas como betas de 0.551 Bq/l y 0.842 Bq/l, respectivamente. Ningún valor superó los límites permitidos por la normatividad mexicana para elementos radiactivos, por lo que no representan un riesgo para la salud.
